steel stud walls 2 nd blast loads 3 rd static resistance function 4 th dynamic analysis Blast threatening and blast event hazards increased dramatically on both scales of artificial and even those occurring unintentionally like accidents in sites highly exposed to such events like petrochemical facilities. Hence designing blast-proof structures to save lives of the occupants of these structures undergoing blast events became an important criterion. One side for achieving this purpose is designing resisting structures to such events. One of the most common types of structures that are widely used is steel stud wall panels. Steel stud wall systems (SSWSs) are a preferable alternative due to the structural and architectural merits of this system. Despite they are steel structures; they still have the advantages of light weight structures. Especially that the main structural members of the system, are usually made from cold formed steel with small sheet thicknesses. This research is fundamentally focused in providing literature view pertaining to previous works done to this point as research. At the end of the paper a conclusion is withdrawn that indicates some fields about the design of SSWSs that are not discussed yet nor investigated before and that are still valid for future works.

“…Usually the highspeed camera is mounted outside the shock tube and is oriented to record the motion of the specimen. If positioned perpendicular to the shock tube, it can record deflections and velocities which are determined from sequential images taken during testing [10,38,43,46,48,49,51]. Propagation of the damage pattern can also be analysed if the camera is placed in such a way to have a clear view of the specimen surface of interest.…”

A brief review of experimental methods for testing blast effects on structures is presented. Methods are classified in four groups: field tests, shock tubes, pendulum systems, and new techniques (blast simulator). Description of each method is given together with overall specification of possible instruments used in each test. In today’s modern era of computers which are becoming powerful tool implemented in all aspects of life and also scientific research, comparison of experimental and numerical techniques is also given. Comparison of data obtained from different experimental methods show that careful planning and execution leads to reliable results in terms of pressure, impulse, stress, and damage quantification.

“…Additional testing and calibration is needed for behavior outside of this regime. One such dataset that was just recently published is that by [11]. For simplicity, at this stage, the model currently uses a perfectly plastic response for representing solely the rupture of the outer ply of a CLT panel.…”

There is a need for renewable building materials that are suitable replacements for conventional building materials such as steel and concrete. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a relatively new composite timber product with increasing use and interest in North America due to its renewable properties. Due to the unique environmental and mechanical properties of CLT, the possibility for rapid construction, and familiarity with the base material (timber), it follows that CLT may be promising for use in temporary military housing. In order to be a material for consideration in temporary military structures, CLT must be evaluated for force protection (i.e. blast effects). To investigate this possibility, the authors used data from live blasting testing conducted by WoodWorks at the US Air Force Civil Engineer Center on multiple two-storey, single-bay CLT structures. A single degree of freedom model (SDOF) was used in conjunction with the shear analogy method to predict the behavior of the CLT structures in the elastic regime. Through the CLT SDOF model, the paper highlights the necessity for further testing of CLT under blast loadings to quantify the effects of shear, boundary conditions, dynamic strength, and other properties.
